Install the motor mounting bolts and shims
as necessary. Tighten to motor manufactur-
ers specifications.
NOTES:
Make sure to install shims where
necessary to prevent motor frame distortion re-
sulting from “soft-foot.” Soft-foot is a condition
were one of the motor frame feet are not in flat
contact with the mounting base. If not properly
shimmed when the bolt is tightened, the motor
frame will distort. FEDCO does not supply mo-
tor shims.
